FAULT-FINDING.

One of the easiest things in tin
world to do is to find fault, and in n,
place are there as many opportunities
for indulging i'm this kind of work a
n the home. There are so many lit
tle things occurring among its inmates
where there is II family of any size
euch as the misplacing of u garment
leaving a door ajaT, altering a thought
ess word, in fact, great many trivia
lings that to people inclined to fine
FAULT will give plenty of cause.
1t is a disagreeable thing to find
fault, any way, to most people, yet
4there are some who seem to like to dc
ID simply for the sake of finding fault
These people do not mean to be chrOn
&c fault finders, and it never occurs tt
5them that they are. They would not
Tor the world he thought disagreeable
aud but for this one trait, would be
Generally very pleasant companions.
They did not acquire this habit at
bnce any of their friends will tell you
81 rat there was time when they were
OF so; but they began by noticing
7svery little failing, or supposed fail
ing, among their acquaintances, and
sshe habit grew with them until it ap-
and condemn every little fault, sup
posed or real. They are very far from
being perfect themselves; in truth,
they think so much about others i'm
|perfectiOns that they have very little
time to attend to their own. They
would be grieved and hurt should
their friends retaliate by noticing every
little eccentricity of theirs, and, per-
haps, had their friends the courage to
do so, it might open their eyes to the
unpleasantness of fault-inding. 1t
certainly would be disagreeable
duty, it duty it might be called, and
few people would care to do it, unless
of the same stamp us the ulttinders,
in which case it would do very little
good.
No one likes to have his faults no
ticed, least of all does he like to have
every slight remark made, exaggerat
ed into fault. Every body has faults
of some kind, and most people fully
realize how great or small they may
be, but nobody cares to be reminded
of them every little while. To be
sure, there are some people who are
perfectly Indifferent to fault-finding.
They will laugh over any reference
made to their failings in a good natur-
ed way, and haven't the least fear of
what any one may say i'll regard to
them. They are always the most &C.,
NAL kind of people, smoothing over all
the difficulties for others that come in
their ways, for they never think of
finding fault with anybody, but will
ingly offer all the help in their power
when it is needed. Such people get
along very well with the fault finders,
for they laugh off remarks over which
most people would be inclined to feel
hurt. A genial, smooth going DISPOSE
ton is an excellent one to possess, and
the more we have of these kind of
tempers the better but all people can
not be of easy going disposition, in
fact, disposition of this kind is so
rare that when once we have friend
of this temper we do not often care to
lose him, and when once gone we feel
his loss far more than many friends of
older growth.

Sunday, "Now let us agree that we
will not say single cross word to any

if when the next Sunday comes we

that we have been happy, and the

In His Vineyard.

There is never a place narrow or short,
But the Masters work is there,
There is something to do for His dear sake,
Or something TO calmly bear.
There are trials to meet with the Christian faith
And duties with Christian grace;
And there's Christian sweetness to every one
To be given in every place.
Their working days never so hard
Who find in Christ a stay;
And days of darkness are days of light,
When Jesus leads the way.
And the waiting days of those who hope,
Are days of quietness;
And the praying days of those who trust
Are days of perfect peace.
There are hOw're down in the valley low,
And over the mountain side,
Which never were praised by human voice,
Nor by human eyes deserted:
Yet sweet the breath of the sweetest rose,
Is the perfume they exhale
And why they thus bloom and where they bloom
The good Lord knOweth well.
